K. Anitha, B. Sridhar and R. K. Rajaram

Abstract: In the title compound, C3H7NO2·C3H8NO2+·C6H2N3O7-, each [beta]-alanine residue forms an asymmetric O-H...O hydrogen bond with its inversion-related partner [O...O = 2.477 (4) and 2.472 (4) Å], involving disorder of carboxylic acid and carboxylate groups. The crystal structure is further stabilized by N-H...O hydrogen bonds.
